Please give a big welcome to Gnocchi!!

Gnocchi is a 5 1/2 to 6 month old long-haired gray tabby male (DOB about 4/1/26). This little guy is full of energy and confidence. When he was introduced to his foster home, he immediately went into the investigative mode, checking out the other cats, greeting them to show he was not intimidated. He wants to be by his humans all the time. Prepare to be entertained by a big personality!

Preference will be given to local adopters (whom we define as living within a 3 hour radius of Knoxville) who have a young playmate/companion for the kitten or are willing to adopt a pair. If interested in this cutie pie, please contact Holly at 865-671-4564 (land line) or [email protected].

Lovely words from a previous adopter:

I adopted two stray cats from the Stray Connection in 2010, shelter names Toffee and Truffles. They are still with me. They are getting older, but are still going strong, and do everything I can so they can live their best lives. I have appreciated their company more than words can say for the past 15+ years. They have been the best friends anyone can wish for. In their name, and to show my appreciation to your organization for taking care of them before they came to me and allowing me to adopt them, I'd like to make a donation that I hope will make it possible for you to help more cats find good homes.

Roomba says, "I'm not broken, I just like to be super comfy when I nap".

Roomba is a handsome buff orange kitten, about 16 weeks old (DOB about 3/20/26), with a heart as warm as his golden coat. Although he had a rough start in life, this resilient little guy has made a complete recovery and has blossomed into a happy, healthy kitten who has learned that people can be trusted, loved, and he loves them. Roomba's favorite thing in the world is playtime. Whether he's chasing toys, wrestling with feline friends, or engaging in play with his people, he's always ready for fun and adventure. Bonus...he's quite the entertainer. Once he's worn himself out, his second favorite activity is finding a warm lap where he can curl up and drift off to sleep. One of the sweetest things about Roomba is how excited he gets when his humans come home. He'll happily greet you at the door, ready for attention, playtime, and cuddles. Roomba is a social butterfly who gets along wonderfully with cats, kittens, dogs, and people of all ages. His affectionate personality, playful spirit, and loving nature make him a perfect addition to almost any home. If you're looking for a kitten who will make you laugh, keep you entertained, and then snuggle up for a cozy nap, Roomba might just be your perfect match.

UPDATE: ADOPTED!!

Meet Tina and Louise!!

Tina (pink collar) and Louise (blue collar) are bonded 4 month old sisters (DOB about 4/15/26) who have come an incredible distance since they were rescued from the woods when they were about 8 weeks old.❤️‍🩹 They've been indoor-only ever since. Although they were scared when first rescued, with patience, consistency, and lots of love, they've blossomed into playful, curious, affectionate little kittens with different personalities. They're still shy and may take some time to settle into a new home, but once they trust you, they are so much fun! Tina is the more cautious of the two, but she's incredibly playful and curious once she feels safe. She loves to perch on elevated surfaces, until she's ready to roll on her back for belly rubs! Louise is extremely curious and a little more outgoing. They LOVE feather toys, hollow logs, shoelaces, and basically anything that moves — including fingers and toes! 😹Since they are a bonded pair, they must be adopted as a pair. They've had some slow introductions to dogs and are good with kids. They are looking for a patient family willing to let them build trust at their own pace.

UPDATE: ADOPTED!

Meet Ricky and Bobbi!!

Ricky and Bobbi are adorable classic gray tabby kittens about 3.5 to 4 months old (DOB about 4/25/26). Ricky is a long, lanky gentleman with legs and tail for days, and Bobbi is his short, chunky sister with the cutest bobtail and the loudest purr. They do everything together: they chase toys, zoom around the house, and then crash in a cuddly kitten pile when they're done. When they can't find their person, they'll call out with tiny meows until you answer... then immediately melt into your lap and start their purr motors. Any time you pick them up they act like you're the best thing that's ever happened to them. Bobbi has lots of personality and loves to chase toys, tackle her brother Ricky, and then curl up right against you when she gets sleepy, or shell make sure you see her get sleepy by booping your nose with hers. Ricky is the first to investigate a new toy, a mysterious noise, or the crinkle ball. When he's tired, he goes looking for a warm lap and will happily snooze while you scroll, read, or watch TV. Ricky and Bobbi are healthy, happy, and looking for a home together where they can be your playful shadows and your cozy cuddle buddies. They are a bonded pair that we prefer stay together (discount for two!). They have been raised around cats and dogs. They are super social and gentle, and we think they will do great with kids.
